I think largely kind of the two main ones being that when you're looking at the opioid epidemic and addiction in general, there are so many factors that play into so many people's.
Imagine the impact of an entire community rallying together to combat the opioid epidemic. This episode dives into how experts and community leaders in Southeast Michigan are doing just that. Molly Welch Marahar and Carrie Rheingans from the U of M Center for Healthcare Research and Transformation, along with a panel of specialists, share their strategies for tackling this pressing issue. They cover everything from policy changes and prevention programs to treatment options and stigma reduction.
One standout initiative is Project Lazarus, a program focused on preventing overdose deaths through community engagement and education. The discussion also highlights the importance of anti-stigma messages and preparing youth for recovery. Whether you're a healthcare professional, educator, or simply someone concerned about the opioid crisis, this episode offers practical advice and inspiring stories of community resilience.
